City firefighters called to hose off 'a large amount of blood' on Lewis Place

The city fire department is responding to Lewis Place to hose off "a large amount of blood in the street" at the request of emergency responders. Regrettably, we don't know how the blood got in the street in the first place.

UPDATE 11:55 a.m. (by Howard): Called dispatch. There was a fight on Lewis Place last night. Somebody got a bloody nose.

I really thought Jason was using sarcasm with his comments, which MANY people do here. I don't think he meant it to be taken seriously..... I could be wrong, but that's just the way I took it when I first read it, I kind of giggled.

Mark, how is that a waste of city resources? Did it impede the fire departments ability to respond to an emergency call? Nope. Did it cost the city any extra? Maybe for tiny amount of fuel they used to drive there (maybe half a mile?). The fireman were already on duty. I don't see how you could argue it a waste of resources. It was probably the cheapest, fastest, and most efficient way to get it cleaned up.
